The Four Cs

Diamond

At Helzberg Diamonds, we pride ourselves on having extremely strict standards for diamond quality - especially when it comes to the cut of our diamonds. We stand behind every diamond that goes into every piece of our jewelry, ensuring that it lives up to the standards we have upheld since 1915.

The basics of diamonds has always come down to the 4Cs - cut, color, clarity and carat weight.

Cut: The cut of a diamond affects how well a diamond returns light back to the viewer's eye. A well cut diamond will appear brilliant and fiery.

Color: A diamond's color is a measure of the stone's whiteness, meaning it is actually measuring the lack of color a diamond has.

Clarity: The clarity of a diamond refers to the presence (or lack) of imperfections. Generally, the more imperfections (or inclusions) a diamond has, the lower the clarity.

Carat Weight: A carat specifically measures a diamond's weight. Because of its rarity, one larger diamond is more valuable than a combination of smaller diamonds.

Rated 5 out of 5 by kellbelle429 Beautiful Ring!
My now fiance gave me this ring as an engagement ring. It is GORGEOUS! The picture on the website just doesn't do it justice! I helped him pick out the ring and when he asked me to marry him and gave me the ring, I was still surprised because it was even more beautiful than I expected. All of my friends love it and everyone thinks it was way more expensive than it was. That's mine and my fiance's little secret. :-) Once I tried on my first morganite ring, no diamond felt right. I couldn't be happier. Highly recommended!

My boyfriend always knew I wanted a morganite engagement ring, so when he proposed last night and placed this gorgeous pear shaped morganite ring on my finger I fell in love all over again. Morganite is called the stone of "Divine Love". The beautiful peach, pink and rose hues just dazzle the eye, and the halo diamonds are the right size to show the magnificent size and shape of the stone. I truly love my fiancé and I truly love the ring he chose to symbolize our love. s there was something about me that just wasn���t worthy of marriage and the right man.
